Physics in Rebellion
Inside a sealed dehydrator, thermodynamics mounts a mutiny. Evaporation steals heat; chilled condenser plates plunder what remains, and every new tray redraws the battlefield. Even a gentle gap between room air and set temperature exerts a subtle, persistent, unforgiving push.
When protecting nutrition, one rogue degree can damage delicate enzymes and mute living flavor.
Attempting Stillness in a Storm
We planned to replace guesswork with listening. At the heart would beat a PID control loop—the same predictive logic that lets drones hover effortlessly in swirling wind. It would sample the chamber’s temperature hundreds of times each second, anticipate drift, and deliver just enough heat to remain on target.
The question remained:
Would graceful software keep its cool while physics throws a tantrum?
YES!
Thirsty rides a razor-thin thermal line, holding ±0.5 °F from the first hour and tightening to ±0.25 °F for most of the cycle, safeguarding raw nutrition and fresh-picked flavor.
When is Temperature Control
Most Critical?
Essential for preserving heat-sensitive enzymes and compounds in sprouted nuts, fruits, and vegetables, ensuring maximum nutritional value and flavor retention without the damage caused by temperature swings.
